Have you tried the 2k12? If so can you let me know how they compare sizing wise? The 2k12 to me fits to size.

I did. I wore them in my regular size.

Just got both 9 and 9.5. I think I need a 9.25. I guess with a pair of the Nike Elite Basketball socks, a 9.5 (my regular size) would be fine. I don't think I could wear the Elite socks with the 9.0 though. Would have to go w/ the old school Nike tennis socks that Delpo and Nadal still wear.

You've gotten these new cages in? So you think sizing down is unnecessary? I'm trying to gauge the opinions of people who have them now before I buy my first pair. If I call TW they'll obviously tell me to size down.

Uh, oh, maybe I should have stayed with the 9s. Oh, well, if the 8.5s go back, I'll just exchange them for the 9s.

Yeah, I got one in each size from TW.

Depends on your foot type/shape and how snug or loose you want it. I'm 9.5 in Vapor 9s, CB4.3s, 2K11/12s. I needed to go down to a 9 in LLV8s, 2K10s. I remember the Breathe Free 2s vaguely. I think this fit pretty similar to those (but back then, I didn't have the Elite socks to deal with).

I'm a 9 in the Ballistec 4.3, so going down to 8.5 for these shoes might be perfect.

Argh I'm hesitant on which size to buy.. Xfactorer so youre going to stick with your natural size? I wear a thick sock too the Thorlo or the Elites.

Played with a friend of mine who wore the cages today. He use to wear the 2k10's and wore the 2k12's before he he purchased the cages. He definitely recommends sizing down at least a 1/2. Even looking at him wearing the shoes I can tell they were big on him.

Ah the decisions... I might end up buying both sizes, my natural and a half size down and just end up picking one when they get here. Another good option I have is to go to a local tennis shop. No rush for me to buy these though.. my 2k12s are still doing great.

ArliHawk.. have you received your pair? Your suggestions? I'm assuming you went normal in 2k12?
